Over the course of his career,
Willard Nixon
pitched 1,234 innings
and made 515 plate appearances.
Nixon
was worth
9.3 Wins Above Replacement
(6.4 as a pitcher and 2.8 as a hitter)
and -0.4 Wins Above Average
(-3.1 as a pitcher and 2.8 as a hitter).
After adjusting for length of schedule, catchers, and relief pitchers, the 9.3 WAR becomes
9.3 adjWAR. Then, WAA is adjusted by ignoring negative seasons
(thus, truly capturing a player’s peak seasons) and making similar adjustments for catchers and relief pitchers.
After these adjustments, the -0.4 WAA becomes 1.7 adjWAA.
Then, the adjWAR and adjWAA are combined, but with extra weighting given to adjWAA.
This gives Nixon 12.4 wWAR. wWAR is then converted to Hall Rating.
A Hall Rating of 100 represents the Hall of Stats borderline (similar to OPS+ or wRC+, where 100 represents league average).
Willard Nixon has a Hall Rating of
12,
leaving him nowhere close to induction to the Hall of Stats.
